00:00:27No.
00:00:28Lesnar with the coming close to the back.
00:00:30No freaking way.
00:00:31Is he sitting Big Show on Superplex?
00:00:33No, he can't do this.
00:00:34A 500-pound Superplex.
00:00:36Brock Lesnar to the top row.
00:00:38Top row, a 500-pound Superplex.
00:00:42My God.
00:00:43What the hell?
00:00:48The ring just imploded.
00:00:52My God.
00:00:58I hope that both Brock Lesnar and the Big Show are okay here.
00:01:14I don't know what to say.
00:01:15There's not much to say, we just hope both Big Show and Brock Lesnar's health, they're intact.
00:01:21I mean, a lot of medical personnel out there.
00:01:23Let's take one more look at this before we go.
00:01:25I've never ever seen anything like this.
00:01:27This is amazing.

00:01:47Come on.
00:01:49And it was my life, my time, my rights, my rhymes, my grind
00:01:54My struggle, hustle, sweat, and my blood too
00:01:56My predators smell a sphere, and I smell a lot
00:01:59My competitors fled scared, but they smug I was hot
00:02:02I wanted all the excess, the sex and much success
00:02:06Stress sucks, I wanted all no less, so come on
00:02:19Smackdown has come to the beautiful city on the river
00:02:27San Antonio, Texas, and the brand new SBC Center
00:02:31Home of the NBA Champion Spurs, Michael Cole and Taz at ringside
00:02:37Well check this out Paul, tonight, right here
00:02:42I'll tell you what, Big Show, Mark Lesnar
00:02:46Unfinished business for the WWE Championship tonight
00:02:50And yes indeed, the ring has been reinforced for tonight's battle
00:03:16Approaching away from Houston, Texas
00:03:28Weighing in at 305 pounds
00:03:31The Undertaker
00:03:34He is a true Texas legend
00:03:37The Undertaker
00:03:39Over a decade of destruction
00:03:42No one, Taz, has dominated the sports entertainment industry
00:03:47For a longer period of time than The Undertaker
00:03:51Well that's Big Evil, and he's heading to his yard on his line
00:03:56Does it get any better in this hole?
00:03:58Kicking off Smackdown with Dead Man Inc. The Undertaker
00:04:01He's right here, and he's in Texas
00:04:03He's a bad man, boy
00:04:09Make no mistake about it
00:04:15The Undertaker's a bad man
00:04:17Who has his hands full
00:04:19Tonight
00:04:20And make it come into the ring by FBI members
00:04:27Chuck Palumbo and Johnny Zamboli
00:04:29Weighing in at 201 pounds
00:04:32Nuzio
00:04:33Well you hit the nail on the head, Parker, at the beginning of the show
00:04:36This is a night of unfinished business
00:04:39And for The Undertaker, his unfinished business is with the full-blooded Italians
00:04:44Undertaker's got a bad shoes rule
00:04:46When you're dealing with the full-blooded Italians
00:04:48You gotta have eyes in the back of your head
00:04:50You gotta watch your back
00:04:52The numbers game can catch up to you
00:04:54Don't be mistaken by Nuzio
00:04:56He looks like he's not that big of a person
00:04:58He's a tough, tough guy, trust me
00:05:00But he's in there with Big Evil, The Pain Syndicate
00:05:02Nuzio appearing a bit confident as this matchup gets underway
00:05:07Well, if you had two guys watching run back, two Goombas, you'd be confident too, bro
00:05:11I do have no friends
00:05:12Nuzio with the shadow boxing
00:05:14I don't know if you wanna be in there throwing hands with The Undertaker
00:05:17Well, he's doing the old loop-de-doop with the foot thing, too, Nuzio is
00:05:20That's really not a good idea, man
00:05:22The man with the big shoe bones like The Undertaker's got
00:05:25The look on The Undertaker's face
00:05:27Nuzio just giving his leg to The Undertaker
00:05:30What's wrong with him?
00:05:32I think Nuzio must aid Kaden today, he's got the fit
00:05:34What's he doing?
00:05:36Oh, yeah, he's giving him a loop
00:05:38Okay, I got you
00:05:40He's telling Undertaker, Nuzio is taking a look
00:05:44Well, Nuzio...
00:05:46Well, that's all it takes
00:05:48Scared out of his boots, so to speak
00:05:51Well, now, kind of a unique single leg takedown
00:05:54which didn't happen by The Undertaker
00:05:56So it's Nuzio and The Undertaker
00:05:58And look at this
00:06:00Gotta watch your back, watch your back, Big Eagle
00:06:02Nuzio on the apron
00:06:04Kick to the side of the hand
00:06:05And again, the distraction from Palumbo
00:06:07And the bull of the FBI
00:06:09Allowing Nuzio to start things off in this matchup
00:06:12Nuzio's got a fly on his back
00:06:14And Undertaker, Nuzio's got a double backed up
00:06:16Back first into that steel post
00:06:19That's how you can kill a fly, ram him against a steel post
00:06:21That always works
00:06:22The Undertaker starting things off against Nuzio
00:06:25on a night, where Brock Lesnar defends the WWE Championship
00:06:29against the Big Show
00:06:31And I still cannot get the images of what we experienced last week
00:06:35out of my mind when the ring actually imploded from that superplex off the top rope from Lesnar to the Big Show
00:06:41Well, right now, speaking of imploded, I mean, Nuzio's insides might implode once he gets inclusive and soaps slammed
00:06:49Nuzio's in all kinds of trouble
00:06:51The Undertaker measuring Nuzio
00:06:53Crowd on its feet in the SPC center
00:06:55A little Palumbo in the SPROMBOLI
00:06:59Yeah, look at it, knocked off the apron
00:07:01An Italian batman rim
00:07:03And look at Undertaker, Nuzio gonna go for the ride
00:07:06What goes up, must come down
00:07:08My God
00:07:09One hand, Undertaker tossing Nuzio over the top rope
00:07:13Big evil taking out all three members of the football Italians
00:07:18with that big choke slam over the top rope
00:07:20The Taker chants from the fans here in San Antonio, Nuzio trying to escape
00:07:29Well, now Nuzio realizes he's on his own now
00:07:31These two kumbazas are down
00:07:33Nuzio's in a land he don't wanna be
00:07:35Someone's going for a ride, Cole
00:07:38And it may be Nuzio's last ride
00:07:44Oh, madame to me, he's gonna stop you across
00:07:48Nuzio
00:07:49If you don't believe in God, Nuzio, you better stop
00:07:53The last ride to Nuzio
00:07:55Cover by The Undertaker
00:07:57One, two, three
00:07:58Undertaker wins
00:08:03And here comes the FBI
00:08:04Palumbo, Johnny the Bull Stamboli
00:08:07The FBI again
00:08:09Love the three on one numbers game
00:08:11And there's a long run by the Bull
00:08:13And there's a long run by the Bull
00:08:14This matchup's over with
00:08:15Undertaker brought to his knees
00:08:16Look at how big and strong and tough you are
00:08:18That'll take down any man
00:08:20Any man
00:08:21It's deja vu all over again, Cole
00:08:23And now Palumbo
00:08:24On the attack
00:08:26Stomping, stomping all over
00:08:28The FBI stomping all over
00:08:30The Undertaker
00:08:31The FBI put The Undertaker
00:08:32Wait a minute
00:08:34What the hell?
00:08:35No
00:08:36The APA drives through
00:08:39Oh shit
00:08:40What?
00:08:41Ron Simmons and Bradshaw are back
00:08:43No!
00:08:44The APA is back
00:08:46I don't believe it
00:08:48What the hell?
00:08:53An APA reunion
00:08:55Couldn't have come at a better time
00:08:58For The Undertaker
00:08:59The Undertaker agrees
00:09:01The APA?
00:09:04Wow
00:09:05Can you believe it?
00:09:06Yes
00:09:07Oh man
00:09:08Look at Bradshaw and Simmons
00:09:09They look better than ever
00:09:12What a way
00:09:17To start on Smackdown

00:10:53F5
00:10:54500 pounds
00:10:55And here comes the new referee
00:10:57In the ring
00:10:58He retains
00:10:59Retains
00:11:00Wait a minute
00:11:01Mark Leicester in pursuit
00:11:03Look at Sean
00:11:04And walked into a steel chair in the ribs
00:11:06Oh my god
00:11:07Oh the back
00:11:08Big show
00:11:09Huge slam
00:11:10Huge slam
00:11:11To the steel chair
00:11:12And the evidence has been
00:11:13Tossed out of the ring
00:11:15And Heyman comes to the ref right like it
00:11:17Not like this
00:11:18Can kill Brock
00:11:19Damn it
00:11:20Paul Heyman is
00:11:21Right on Brock Leicester
00:11:25That all took place in Madison Square Garden last year
00:11:28We're at the garden next week for SmackDown
00:11:30Oh yeah
00:11:31Leicester and Big Show for the title tonight
00:11:33And here comes Chris Benoit
00:11:35And here comes Benoit
00:11:36Rabid Wolverine
00:11:37Rabid Wolverine
00:11:38On his way to the ring man
00:11:40Chris Benoit ever retains
00:11:42Always the aggressor
00:11:44Gotta love that
00:11:46The toughness out of Benoit
00:11:47Feel it
00:11:48That's why they call him the Rabid Wolverine
00:11:51And uh
00:11:53Well this is odd
00:11:55Here comes Rhino
00:11:56And Rhino and Benoit
00:11:58Had their problems
00:11:59In the past couple of weeks
00:12:00Why's it odd
00:12:01They're friends
00:12:02I mean
00:12:03Why's it odd
00:12:04Well they are
00:12:05They're friends with their tag team
00:12:06In the past couple of weeks
00:12:07Rhino plus Benoit
00:12:08Well you know
00:12:09It happens
00:12:10A match up inadvertently
00:12:11Men get dogged
00:12:12These friends get dogged
00:12:13These guys are friends
00:12:14They're a great take
00:12:15They're not such a tag team
00:12:16They've got a lot of success
00:12:17In the tag team division here
00:12:19Are they gonna team together tonight
00:12:20What's going on
00:12:21Looks like they're still friends with me
00:12:22Cole
00:12:23See that
00:12:24Well Stephanie
00:12:29The general manager of Smackdown
00:12:32Stephanie McMahon
00:12:33And
00:12:41I don't know about all of you
00:12:43But I like a little competition
00:12:46Now this past Sunday night
00:12:48Stone Cold Steve Austin
00:12:50And Eric Bischoff presented Bad Blood
00:12:53And I'll admit
00:12:54It was a pretty good pay-per-view
00:12:56So Sunday July 27th
00:12:59Live from Denver, Colorado
00:13:01Smackdown will present Vengeance
00:13:07Now speaking of competition
00:13:09Chris, Benoit, Rhino
00:13:11The two of your tag team partners
00:13:13But tonight
00:13:14You'll be facing each other
00:13:16In the first rounds
00:13:19Of the United States Championship Tournament
00:13:22And your match begins right now
00:13:26Whoa
00:13:27Wow
00:13:28Man, talk about a blockbuster
00:13:31I don't even think Benoit and Rhino
00:13:32Realized what was going on until
00:13:33Not it
00:13:35Both run
00:13:37Wait a minute
00:13:38Okay, let me get this straight
00:13:39Rhino's gonna face Benoit now
00:13:40In the first tournament matchup
00:13:41For the United States Championship
00:13:43Stephanie mentioned Vengeance
00:13:44So it's Benoit and Rhino
00:13:46Good friends going one-on-one
00:13:47Against each other
00:13:48This is, I mean
00:13:49Both men realize it's on the line
00:13:50And this is an opportunity to advance
00:13:51In this tournament
00:13:52For this new United States Championship
00:13:53And you can see the intensity
00:13:54Between these two men
00:13:55Remember, as he has hit on before
00:13:56They are teammates
00:13:57They're good friends
00:13:58But the past couple of weeks
00:13:59Rhino inadvertently cost Chris Benoit
00:14:00A couple of matchups
00:14:01So this is the, I guess, first round of the tournament
00:14:16To crown a new United States Champion
00:14:17Which we learned last week Stephanie's bringing back to SmackDown
00:14:21Neither men have an advantage here
00:14:23Neither men knew who they were gonna
00:14:25It was even gonna be the match here
00:14:27It's a great point
00:14:28So
00:14:29But both men know each other so well
00:14:30And these guys travel together
00:14:32You know, you know about a guy when you travel them all the time
00:14:35I mean, hey, my neck hurts, my back hurts
00:14:37You hear these things when you're driving up and down the roads
00:14:39You can take advantage of that if you're Rhino or Benoit here in this matchup
00:14:42Well, what a start of the United's Ben
00:14:43We got a first round matchup in this tournament for the United States Championship
00:14:47As Benoit goes to work with the arm bar and Rhino
00:14:49The APA's return
00:14:50We still got Brock Lesnar to face Big Show for the WWE Championship
00:14:54Kurt Angle's in the house
00:14:55shoulders down and Rhino spins out
00:14:58I'll tell you this United States title
00:15:00Some history here
00:15:01You trace its roots back to 1975
00:15:05Go Spurs Go Chay here at San Antonio home of the NBA Champions
00:15:14I don't see any basketballs here
00:15:16It's a wrestling match
00:15:17Enough with the basketball
00:15:18Big parade yesterday here, San Antonio
00:15:20Yeah, who cares, this is for a U.S. title tournament.
00:15:23He don't cares about a round ball,
00:15:24what's on with the black lines on it.
00:15:26But again, as I was talking about,
00:15:27the United States title dates back to 1975,
00:15:30back to the old NWA.
00:15:32Its first champion was none other
00:15:34than the legendary Harley Race.
00:15:36Phenomenal Harley Race, a great legend,
00:15:39and right now a great wrestler himself,
00:15:41Chris Benoit with a hammerlock on Rhino.
00:15:44Rhino probably wants to switch,
00:15:46get behind right there, go for a speedball.
00:15:48Shoulders down by Benoit, and Benoit just kicks out.
00:15:52With Benoit style, straight at you,
00:15:55he's gonna try and outwrest you,
00:15:56capitalize all those years of,
00:15:59of learning match style wrestling in Japan.
00:16:04Again, a takedown by Benoit,
00:16:05working on that left arm of Rhino in its matchup.
00:16:09First round of the tournament,
00:16:10to crown a United States champion.
00:16:13Chris Benoit and Rhino, very good friends,
00:16:16intense competitors,
00:16:18intensity coming out of the matchup is Rhino.
00:16:20The 275 pounder drives Benoit into the turnbuckle,
00:16:25and then a right hand.
00:16:26Lot of power there, a lot of power,
00:16:28both men very fistful, and very rugged.
00:16:31Smash man style of both athletes.
00:16:34Oh man, those crippling chops.
00:16:38We're about to win right at him.
00:16:39Now the right hand to the ribs of Benoit from Rhino.
00:16:42Benoit quickly stomping Rhino with that boot to the stomach,
00:16:46with a high needle of sternum right there by Rhino.
00:16:48Look out, Rhino.
00:16:51Benoit sidestepped and Rhino rolls out of the ring.
00:16:54Over aggressive, Rhino.
00:16:56Well, this match was interesting before, but I think things are really heating up now.
00:17:02Oh, whoa, we're back, here we go.
00:17:09Hey, look at Rhino, with the right hands to Chris Benoit.
00:17:12These two men have been going after each other all through the commercial break.
00:17:15They've been beating the hell out of each other, and Rhino with a tight half grab.
00:17:19A single leg Boston grab on Chris Benoit.
00:17:22A submission maneuver.
00:17:23Chris Benoit and Rhino battling it out in the first round
00:17:26of the United States Championship Tournament.
00:17:29I'd like to see what other competitors are going to be in this tournament as weeks go by.
00:17:33And General Manager Stephanie McMahon, I'm sure her office working on the brackets
00:17:36for this unique tournament here on SmackDown.
00:17:40Chris Benoit trying to get a guy straight here, trying to fight back on Rhino.
00:17:45Rhino was getting the better of him going to break both men's, though,
00:17:48was swinging hard at each other, nailing each other, running back elbow.
00:17:52Here's Benoit into the cover on Rhino, who quickly kicks out.
00:17:56Well, Benoit staying on top of Rhino.
00:17:58Rhino right there stopping Benoit.
00:18:00What's this?
00:18:02And Benoit's in trouble.
00:18:03Oh, wow.
00:18:04Head first, top turnbuckle, buys Rhino some time.
00:18:07No doubt, Rhino's going for a power ball, but smashing Benoit.
00:18:12Hook of the leg on Benoit, who just gets his shoulder up.
00:18:15I'll tell you, this is why I've wrestled both these guys in my career.
00:18:18Rhino and Chris Benoit individually, I'll tell you.
00:18:20Completely the same style, rugged physical style.
00:18:24But Benoit relies on technique where Rhino, he's straight up power.
00:18:27Oh, damn, power all the way.
00:18:29Rhino just .
00:18:31What a close line from the Man Beast Rhino.
00:18:34Hook of the outside leg, and Benoit again barely gets that shoulder up before the three
00:18:39count.
00:18:40Rhino, you gotta stay on Chris Benoit.
00:18:42An athlete like Benoit, you can't give him any breathing space.
00:18:45You gotta stay on him.
00:18:47Oh, and another close line.
00:18:49Because these guys were a great tag team, and cover again, hooks the inside leg.
00:18:53It's time.
00:18:54And again, Benoit kicks out.
00:18:55Because they are friends, they know each other so well, as we pointed out before the break.
00:19:00And Rhino, that's why he's staying on Chris Benoit.
00:19:03Rhino's in control of this matchup.
00:19:05Except for now.
00:19:06I disagree with this by Rhino, that's just my opinion.
00:19:13Well, Benoit trying to take advantage, but Rhino with a shot to the midsection.
00:19:18Chris Benoit's in.
00:19:19Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:19:20Here's the hook to the leg, and a kick out.
00:19:23Rhino almost getting the pin right there on Benoit with that power slam.
00:19:30What do you say?
00:19:31A neck vice right here, trying that surgery repaired neck of Benoit.
00:19:35Both of these men have had surgically repaired necks.
00:19:38Rhino and Chris Benoit over the past couple of years, and Rhino taking advantage.
00:19:42And once again, like you said, these men know each other so well.
00:19:44I think, speaking of both men having cover, and again, Benoit kicks in.
00:19:49Both men having successfully, you know, going through neck surgery,
00:19:52that's kind of how these two guys got the bond with each other,
00:19:55because of, you know, having that in common.
00:19:57Coming back from neck surgery.
00:20:00And look at this, well, Benoit's hook of the leg again!
00:20:02Rhino just kicks out, Benoit almost caught the man beast,
00:20:05but Rhino again in control of this matchup.
00:20:08Yeah, Rhino just shutting down Chris Benoit.
00:20:11This is not like Rhino, you know, playing to the ground like this.
00:20:14This is usually, you know, it's not usually the way Rhino gets in there and messes the match,
00:20:18but hey.
00:20:20Wow.
00:20:21You got a game plan in mind with that rear chin lock, locked in of Chris Benoit.
00:20:28And Rhino continues the pressure.
00:20:30This matchup set out a surprise by General Manager Stephanie McMahon.
00:20:35The first matchup in the tournament to crown a new United States champion.
00:20:39And Rhino has been in pretty much total control.
00:20:42Yes, and Cole, these guys are friends.
00:20:44I'd hate to see what they would do to each other if they weren't friends.
00:20:46They killed each other.
00:20:47Benoit shot into the midsection, trying to battle out.
00:20:49Rhino ripped off the balls and knocked down with a big shoulder.
00:20:52Well, Rhino's got the weight advantage.
00:20:54A lot of speed built up right there by Rhino.
00:20:56Rhino's very quick for a big strong dude.
00:20:59Snapmare again, and again into that chin lock as the pressure is applied to the neck of Chris Benoit.
00:21:06Do you think they'll be tag team partners after this show or what?
00:21:09Who knows?
00:21:10These guys are so intense.
00:21:11And Rhino continues the pressure on the rabid Wolverine Chris Benoit.
00:21:18Rhino trying to wear down Chris Benoit.
00:21:20Cut off that blood, that oxygen to the brain with that choke.
00:21:23And referee Mike Kiyoto did a good job making sure it's not an illegal maneuver,
00:21:27an illegal choke.
00:21:28Referee Mike Kiyoto was in the ring last week when it imploded in that Big Show Brock Lesnar match.
00:21:33Big Show Lesnar for the title.
00:21:35Unfinished business, Cole, unfinished business.
00:21:38Here tonight on SmackDown.
00:21:40And look at Benoit trying to make it to his feet.
00:21:43Now, the elbows to the midsection of Rhino.
00:21:46Benoit with a right forearm.
00:21:48Benoit's loaded with a tesla fortitude.
00:21:50But Rhino's snap, man, just completely, just cutting him, just stopping Benoit off right there.
00:21:55And again, back to the pressure on the neck of Chris Benoit.
00:21:59You see the intensity in the eyes of Rhino.
00:22:02If there's anybody more intense than Chris Benoit in SmackDown, it could very well be Rhino.
00:22:08You never know what happened.
00:22:11I said, you know, both these men, their friends, they travel together.
00:22:14You never know what Benoit might have said to Rhino earlier today or yesterday in the car.
00:22:18You know, hey, my neck hurts.
00:22:19My neck's been bothering me or something.
00:22:21You don't know.
00:22:22I mean, you confide in a friend when you're on a road with him and you travel with a guy.
00:22:25You're up and down the road, you train with the guy.
00:22:27You got one of your own family.
00:22:30That's a great point as Rhino continues the pressure on the Rabid Wolverine.
00:22:35Wow.
00:22:38Benoit trying to make it to his feet here.
00:22:40Yeah, Rhino's got a lot of pressure.
00:22:42Benoit trying to get some separation from his body and Rhino's body.
00:22:46To his feet, Benoit.
00:22:48Wow, disparate maneuver by Benoit.
00:22:51It did work.
00:22:52And again, Rhino shot to the midsection.
00:22:54And again, a clubbing blow to the back of the neck.
00:22:57Rhino's pinpointed what he wants, and that's the neck of Chris Benoit.
00:23:02Oh, wow.
00:23:03What a move.
00:23:04Rhino telegraphed it.
00:23:05Benoit took advantage.
00:23:06Big clothesline.
00:23:07Benoit beginning to build momentum.
00:23:10You can feel it shift here.
00:23:11Benoit is on the hop.
00:23:13Benoit's moving quick with a lot of bad intentions on his mind.
00:23:16Benoit.
00:23:17Wow.
00:23:18Staffed suplex.
00:23:19No doubt.
00:23:20Oh, no.
00:23:21Hook to the leg.
00:23:22And Rhino took advantage as he kicked out on a count of two.
00:23:25Well, Benoit's had the tall beat out of him out here.
00:23:27He probably don't have much behind that platter of shots.
00:23:30He's turning first.
00:23:31Watch the German.
00:23:32And Rhino counters grabbing the toss.
00:23:34He knows the man so well.
00:23:35Knows Chris Benoit's arsenal.
00:23:37Benoit's hands still locked around the waist.
00:23:39Now, Rhino battles out of it.
00:23:41Benoit misses.
00:23:42Look out.
00:23:43Oh, buster.
00:23:44Benoit planted.
00:23:46Oh, boy.
00:23:47See, Benoit's neck and head snap off the mat.
00:23:50If Rhino, if Rhino was able to get a pin cover,
00:23:52he might get the victory in advance in this tournament
00:23:55for the United States Championship.
00:23:56Rhino crawls.
00:23:57Here we go.
00:23:58Hooks the leg.
00:23:59He's gonna advance.
00:24:00Shoulders down.
00:24:01And Benoit, again, just gets the shoulder up.
00:24:03A lot of toughness by Chris Benoit to kick out
00:24:06of that vicious, vicious spine buster.
00:24:10Both men have been through a hell of a lot in this matchup.
00:24:13Stamina could come into play here.
00:24:15Look out.
00:24:16German suplex a release.
00:24:18What German suplex could be the difference maker?
00:24:20Chris Benoit gonna fly, man.
00:24:25Going up for that patented headbutt.
00:24:27Chris Benoit to the top rope.
00:24:31Benoit covers with the headbutt.
00:24:34Here's the cover.
00:24:35He's gonna have him.
00:24:36Hook to the leg.
00:24:37You're gonna get it.
00:24:38And Rhino just gets the shoulder up again.
00:24:40What a matchup.
00:24:41And Benoit cannot believe he didn't get a three count there.
00:24:45Yeah, Benoit frustrated right there.
00:24:48It's, it really, I'm telling you, it sucks when you think
00:24:51you got a guy beat on a move, and then he kicks out.
00:24:54Man, it just, wow.
00:24:55Benoit planted off the DDT by Rhino.
00:25:00Both men down center of the ring.
00:25:01This could be the turning point of the matchup.
00:25:03First man to take advantage here could advance in this tournament
00:25:06as we look to crown down the road a new United States champion.
00:25:10Well, both athletes buying some time, buying some time right now.
00:25:14Let the referee get to about eight or nine.
00:25:16Catch your win and then get up and try and get on top of your opponent.
00:25:20If he gets to ten and both men are still there in this match.
00:25:23Will be a no contest.
00:25:25Benoit makes it to his feet first.
00:25:28Rhino using the rope.
00:25:29Watch the goal.
00:25:30Watch the goal.
00:25:31And Chris Benoit sidestepped.
00:25:34Sidestepped it.
00:25:35Right back to that.
00:25:36Rhino to advance in the United States tournament.
00:25:39No, Benoit just got the shoulder up.
00:25:43Both men have each other scouted so well.
00:25:46So well.
00:25:47Talk about even matchups.
00:25:48And what a first round matchup in this tournament set up by Stephanie McMahon here tonight.
00:25:52Yeah, what the next match is gonna be like?
00:25:54Oh boy, look out!
00:25:55Benoit!
00:25:56Crossface!
00:25:57Crossface is locked in!
00:25:59Will Rhino tap into the crossface?
00:26:01Why does it jump?
00:26:02It's in the middle of the ring!
00:26:03No way to go!
00:26:04Rhino taps out!
00:26:06Benoit!
00:26:07It bounces!
00:26:08Here is your name, Chris Benoit!
00:26:11Benoit's not letting go!
00:26:12Chris Benoit!
00:26:15Chris Benoit has advanced in this tournament to crown a new United States Champion!
00:26:23That's great for Chris Benoit!
00:26:24It's kind of interesting to know how long Chris Benoit kept that crossface on Rhino, but I'm
00:26:30overthinking it.
00:26:31But a great victory for Benoit to advance in this tournament to the United States Championship!
00:26:36And Chris Benoit is static over the back!
00:26:39Hey, it was a hell of a matchup!
00:26:40Benoit realized that, showing respect to Rhino!
00:26:41There's Benoit and Rhino!
00:26:42I'll tell you, Benoit advances in the tournament!
00:26:43But how about the relationship between Benoit and Rhino?
00:26:46Zach, I'm sure Stephanie will be back soon!
00:26:47Why don't you make yourself more comfortable while you wait?
00:26:48No, I'm fine, thanks!
00:26:49I'm fine, thanks!
00:26:50You know, Zach, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for what happened to you.
00:26:51I'm fine, thanks!
00:26:52You know, Zach, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for what happened to you.
00:26:53last week.
00:26:54And I want you to know that I would have never been up to you.
00:26:55Maybe you had a jab of men and who was the one who was the one who was the one who was
00:26:59Zach, I'm sure Stephanie will be back soon.
00:27:06Why don't you make yourself more comfortable while you wait?
00:27:08No, I'm fine, thanks.
00:27:15You know, Zach, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for what happened last week.
00:27:21And I want you to know that I would have never interfered in your arm wrestling match.
00:27:26Because I have way too much respect for you.
00:27:29But I did see you look, Zach.
00:27:36Zach, you did look, didn't you?
00:27:40Well, yeah.
00:27:42But that's okay, Zach.
00:27:44Because I didn't mind.
00:27:48You know, last week you had an opportunity to see.
00:27:53How would you like to feel it?
00:27:55Whoa.
00:27:57Whoa!
00:27:59Oh, yes.
00:28:03Oh, Zach, that feels so good.
00:28:08Oh.
00:28:11Oh.
00:28:17Oh.
00:30:01Well, Rey Mysterio, the Cruiserweight Champion, will have his hands full tonight with a much larger competitor in Canyon.
00:30:07Well, Canyon's 242 pounds.
00:30:09I mean, Mysterio's giving up a lot of weight here, shows how much heart and toughness Mysterio's got.
00:30:13Well, Rey Mysterio showed a hell of a lot of heart a couple of weeks ago when he defeated Matt Hardy, injured Dwayne et al for the Cruiserweight Championship, and then won the rematch last week.
00:30:23Nice drop, toehold from Rey Mysterio.
00:30:27Mysterio scream out.
00:30:29Break scissors.
00:30:31Canyon in all kinds of trouble early.
00:30:33Mysterio Canyon don't know what hit him.
00:30:35It's just like a red buzzsaw flying around out there.
00:30:39Mysterio hanging on top rope.
00:30:40Canyon has been thrown off his game here early by Rey Mysterio.
00:30:44Why?
00:30:45Because of his beard.
00:30:46Whoa!
00:30:47Canyon over the top rope.
00:30:48What a beard.
00:30:49Rey Mysterio out to the apron of the ring.
00:30:51Mysterio's gonna be some flying right here.
00:30:53Mysterio on the apron.
00:30:54Look at this.
00:30:55Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:30:56Mysterio may have had a mistake.
00:30:58And Canyon took advantage.
00:31:00Well, Canyon has faced Rey Mysterio in the past before.
00:31:03So right there, that might have been a move that Mysterio maybe tried on Canyon in the past, and Canyon capitalized.
00:31:08Look at the leg.
00:31:09Boom!
00:31:10Mysterio in a kick out.
00:31:11Canyon's up!
00:31:12Canyon's up!
00:31:13Canyon's up!
00:31:14Canyon's up!
00:31:15So these people here know Canyon.
00:31:16Yeah, Canyon's close to some monk or something from Tibet.
00:31:19We saw that on Velocity a couple of weeks ago.
00:31:21Monk!
00:31:22Monk!
00:31:23Monk!
00:31:24Monk!
00:31:25Monk!
00:31:26Monk!
00:31:27Monk!
00:31:28Monk!
00:31:29Monk!
00:31:30Monk!
00:31:31Monk!
00:31:33Monk!
00:31:34Monk!
00:31:35Monk!
00:31:36Monk!
00:31:37Monk!
00:31:38Monk!
00:31:39gorgeous!
00:31:40Monk!
00:31:41U-uhh!
00:31:42Mysterio's in trouble!
00:31:43He sure is!
00:31:44He went with the back brake!
00:31:45Great move by Canyon there.
00:31:46Here's the governor hook of the leg again and Mysterio kicks out.
00:31:49That Smut second time in the match that Canyon hit a big move, and went for a cover quickly on Mysterio.
00:31:50Very smart.
00:31:51But we told you earlier, Taz, there's gonna be a new player in the cruiserweight division.
00:31:55Well, we told you earlier, Taz, there's gonna be a new player in the Cruiserweight division
00:31:59come this coming week on SmackDown.
00:32:01The Ultimo Dragon debuts at the Garden on SmackDown next week.
00:32:05Oh, yeah, man, props for our GM Stephanie McMahon for locking down and nailing down
00:32:10the Ultimo Dragon.
00:32:13Mysterio ripped across the ring by Candy.
00:32:16Into the turnbuckles, Candy, there's the crux of Mysterio.
00:32:20Mysterio went in, shoulders to the midsection.
00:32:22Looks like Canyon might be running out of-
00:32:25Look at this, bridge, shoulders down, and Mysterio kicks out.
00:32:29Very innovative move by Canyon.
00:32:31Hey, what?
00:32:32What do you think's going on in the back there between Sable and Zack Gowen?
00:32:35My God, that kid's getting-
00:32:37I think you're gonna run back there during the commercial break,
00:32:39try to get a sneak peek.
00:32:40Exactly.
00:32:42Wow.
00:32:43Hey, Zack's doing a little bit better right now to Mysterio.
00:32:45Mysterio's in trouble right here.
00:32:47And look at Canyon.
00:32:48Mysterio with a shot to the midsection.
00:32:51Mysterio's still fighting back right now with the ropes.
00:32:54Shot to the side of the head of Canyon again.
00:32:55Canyon's rocking.
00:32:56Canyon trying it.
00:32:58Look at that.
00:32:58Look at that.
00:33:00Mysterio's innovative offense.
00:33:02Cover.
00:33:03One.
00:33:03Hooks the leg.
00:33:04And Canyon just kicks out.
00:33:06Rey Mysterio, the Cruiserweight Champion, taking it to Canyon in this matchup.
00:33:13Canyon right now, he might be running out of gas here, Cole.
00:33:17Mysterio is moving so quick, I don't know if Canyon can keep up.
00:33:20Off the snap there.
00:33:21And Mysterio, man.
00:33:23Moonsaults to the face.
00:33:24Mysterio just gets you from every angle possible.
00:33:27Look at this.
00:33:28Off the top wall, connecting, hook to the leg again.
00:33:30And Canyon kicks out.
00:33:32What is the springboard into a moonsault by Rey Mysterio?
00:33:36How good is this guy?
00:33:37That's why he's a Cruiserweight Champion.
00:33:38And Canyon with a shot to midsection.
00:33:40Not gonna see any twisting moonsaults later on tonight.
00:33:43It's gonna be all power.
00:33:44Big Show and Brock Lesnar for the title later on tonight on SmackDown.
00:33:48Mysterio and Canyon's the most much Canyon caught him.
00:33:51Might be an electric chair.
00:33:52No, what?
00:33:53Mysterio.
00:33:55Mysterio.
00:33:56Gotta cover him here, Canyon.
00:33:58Here's Canyon into the cover.
00:34:00Hooks the leg, shoulders down, and Mysterio kicks out again.
00:34:02Look at that beard on Canyon.
00:34:05Sorry, I just hate the guy's beard.
00:34:08It's so big and you shave it'll fill it in.
00:34:10Come on, make up your mind.
00:34:11With the lines.
00:34:12What do you mean, fill it in with like a Sharpie or something?
00:34:15Uh-oh, Mysterio is in serious trouble.
00:34:18Vertical suplex on the apron.
00:34:19On the apron.
00:34:20Mysterio counter for the shot to midsection.
00:34:23And Canyon.
00:34:24My God, that is getting clumped by Mysterio.
00:34:27What the hell?
00:34:27Oh, man.
00:34:28Wow.
00:34:31A leg drop, Canyon got caught up in the top mark.
00:34:34Here we go.
00:34:35Dial it up.
00:34:36Six-run, nine, connected.
00:34:38Mysterio feeling it.
00:34:41Well, what pretty rough we're in Texas, Cole.
00:34:44You feel the puck or what?
00:34:46West Coast puck, here it comes.
00:34:48The West Coast puck connects.
00:34:50Hook of the leg.
00:34:52Who better than Canyon, Mysterio, tonight.
00:34:56Here's your winner, Rey Mysterio.
00:35:00Damn.
00:35:00Wow.
00:35:01Very impressive by Mysterio to beat a much larger Athlete Canyon.
00:35:08Rey Mysterio right there, the Cruiserweight Champion, successful right here tonight on SmackDown.
00:35:14I tell you, I get chills every time Rey Mysterio is going to work in the ring because of action like this.
00:35:21But right here, boom, the patented classic 6-1-9 by Rey Mysterio.
00:35:27What comes next?
00:35:28The West Coast puck.
00:35:30It's all over but the shot.
00:35:33And later on tonight, unfinished business.
00:35:36It's Big Show and Brock Lesnar for the deadly WWE title.
00:35:45The Big Show going to the kill off the jump slam.
00:35:49Wait a minute, Lesnar.
00:35:51It's Brock Lesnar.
00:35:53The 5, the 5 to 500 pounds.
00:35:56Yeah.
00:35:57The Big Show.
00:35:58The Big Show is down.
00:36:00Kurt Angle is crawling toward the champion.
00:36:03One, two, three.
00:36:07And the new WWE Champion came back as Lesnar screws The Big Show.
00:36:23Well, they were fired from Team Angle and John Benjamin and Charlie Haas out here with new music and new outfits.
00:36:36Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Charlie Haas and Sean Benjamin.
00:36:41You guys both to Haas and Ben really today.
00:36:43You see the balloon and silver and wear.
00:36:46And what that means is Seaton Hall with Charlie Haas with the clouds.
00:36:49They call the silver and blue.
00:36:51And we're shot with the school, University of Minnesota.
00:36:53And they call the maroon and gold.
00:36:54So maroon and silver are called to meet in their schools.
00:36:58Hence the maroon and silver.
00:37:00Thanks a lot, Taz.
00:37:01Anyhow, uh.
00:37:02Yeah, fashion by Taz.
00:37:03Anything else?
00:37:04Any other great stats you want to throw around on that?
00:37:06That's basically about it.
00:37:11This crowd's got something, though, all over these guys.
00:37:14And we know Kurt Angle thinks we're going to come down here
00:37:19and apologize for jumping him last week.
00:37:27We also know that he's going to expect us to beg him to let us back into Team Angle.
00:37:33And he can forget it.
00:37:38Because leaving Team Angle was the best thing to ever happen to us.
00:37:45Simply put, the name Angle was holding us back.
00:37:51Kurt Angle represents everything that we're not, Shelton.
00:37:55We don't need to be called Team Angle anymore.
00:38:07And you want to know why?
00:38:10Because we're the best damn tag team, period.
00:38:13Now, next week, if Kurt Angle wants to come on down here and get a piece of this,
00:38:21well, I got news for him.
00:38:27Why wait until this week?
00:38:29He's got a hard guy to find.
00:38:30He's the guy with the gold medal around his neck.
00:38:41And he's the guy the fans chant you suck at.
00:38:43Well, Kurt Angle knows who sucks.
00:38:45That's what he said, right?
00:38:46You got it.
00:38:47I still can't get over this.
00:38:51Charlie Hoffman, Shelton, Benjamin, the way they treated Kurt Angle last week.
00:38:54Kurt Angle's the man who took these two young men under his wing.
00:38:58Taught them the ways of the world in sports entertainment here in the WWE.
00:39:01Kurt, Kurt threw them off Team Angle.
00:39:04He stripped the colors and got rid of Team Angle.
00:39:07He didn't show up on his big, big return.
00:39:09They were sick.
00:39:10They had a sick note.
00:39:11They were sick.
00:39:11Can't you get sick around here, for God's sakes?
00:39:17It's a great deal.
00:39:28Missed in with a USA champ, and a used son.
00:39:39USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA
00:40:09just said. Maybe leaving Team Angle was the best thing that ever happened to you. Maybe my name
00:40:20was holding you back. Maybe you guys really are the best damn tag team, period.
00:40:28In fact, there are only two words that I take exception to. Next week. Next week, if Kurt
00:40:50Angle wants a piece of us, what is that? Shut up. Next week is for wimps. Look at me. Next
00:41:10week is for crybabies. Oh yeah. You don't know, you know what? Next week is actually the polite
00:41:20way of saying we have no bulls. Good way to put it. You know what? You are right. Because
00:41:36Kurt Angle represents everything that you're not. Because Kurt Angle doesn't represent
00:41:40next week. Kurt Angle represents right freaking now. Wow. So if either of you want a piece
00:41:53of me, shut your mouth, step up to the plate, and do something about it right freaking now.
00:42:03Kurt Angle is all business. Well, Kurt didn't mix words, man, kind of.
00:42:10You see, calling one of these, one of these, Haas or Benjamin out.
00:42:14Well, Kurt Angle's ready to go. The referee out here in the ring. Benjamin and Haas trying
00:42:20to make up their mind who's gonna go after Kurt, but I guess you're gonna have some sort of
00:42:24matchup here. Charlie Haas looks like he's the one that's gonna take on Angle. Kurt Angle's
00:42:29first matchup since WrestleMania in his battle against Brock Lesnar, and it's gonna be
00:42:34interesting to see, Taz, how Kurt Angle's neck is gonna hold up in this matchup.
00:42:38Teacher versus student right here. And let's go back out.
00:42:40Charlie Haas, Kurt Angle, both men, extremely similar styles, amateur wrestling
00:42:46backgrounds, and waiting three months for this night. Kurt Angle, Charlie Haas
00:42:52locking it up, center of the ring, and still behind for Kurt Angle.
00:42:55And Charlie Haas. Well, I mean, Kurt Angle has trained with Haas, and Haas and Benjamin,
00:43:01time in to time out, and wrestling rooms throughout Pittsburgh and all over the country. It'll be
00:43:06interesting to see how much Kurt actually taught these kids, and how much he didn't teach
00:43:11them, if you know what I mean. Kurt Angle up over the top. Charlie Haas went for the hip
00:43:15shot. Nice fireman's carry, takedown by Kurt Angle, with arm drive by Angle's way, as the
00:43:19Angle chants fill the arena. Again, a Dr. Joe in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with minimally
00:43:28invasive neck surgery. A state-of-the-art, a new procedure. Really a test case for Kurt Angle,
00:43:34but Kurt says he feels great. He had discs, some bone spurs drilled out of his neck, Taz,
00:43:40open some nerve canals. Kurt Angle says he's never felt as good as he has. Here's the first
00:43:45test for him tonight. Key lock applied right there by Kurt Angle. Looks pretty damn good to
00:43:50me, Cole. Kurt Angle's moving good right here. Hammerlock by Charlie Haas. Nice straight elbow.
00:43:55Wow! Over and over throw right there by Kurt Angle. I tell you what, you don't want to
00:44:00trade holds for Kurt Angle. A lot of kids went to Seton Hall, Minnesota, regular how you went to
00:44:03school. Kurt Angle's a gold medal winner. Bottom line, 1996 Olympics, holding gold medal at the
00:44:09history of the WWE. Best in the world. We got him here on SmackDown. Best in the world. Look at that,
00:44:14single-legged into a back heel trip. Charlie Haas. Look out! Nice arm drag of his own for
00:44:19Charlie Haas. Charlie Haas knows Kurt Angle very well. As I pointed out, trained
00:44:24together. Kurt Angle sharpened these guys' skills up by training them. You gotta wonder how
00:44:30much did Kurt teach him. You know, when you teach a guy, you don't wanna teach him all your tricks,
00:44:34and I'm sure Kurt didn't do that. Charlie Haas, former All-American from Seton Hall University.
00:44:38But again, Kurt Angle, Charlie Haas. Kurt Angle kicks out of it. And again, Charlie Haas will
00:44:43take that. Side headlock takedown right there. Kurt Angle looked like he was going
00:44:48for a head-sizzle, but Kurt Angle's sitting and waiting, feeling out this side headlock. Kurt's
00:44:52keeping that shoulder off the match, and he's not pinned. Very important night for Kurt Angle. Kurt Angle
00:44:57felt, oh, really humiliated a couple of weeks ago that Team Angle didn't show up. Kurt Angle's big
00:45:04return in Anaheim. Here on SmackDown at former Team Angle. Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas
00:45:11called in sick. And Kurt Angle looking to teach Charlie Haas a lesson here tonight.
00:45:16Saw headlock tightly applied by Charlie Haas. Kurt trying to find out.
00:45:21Ripped across the rim. Nice shoulder knocked down by Charlie Haas. Up over the top goes Charlie Haas. Kurt Angle
00:45:28and that leap throng by Kurt. Shot through the midsection. Double leg. And Charlie Haas in trouble. A long shot over the top row and tossed out of the rim. And Kurt Angle putting on a clinic.
00:45:42I thought Haas is gonna end up on this table. Right out in front of us.
00:45:49He sent Benjamin shouting instructions to Charlie Haas for his party. Best damn tag team, period, they call themselves.
00:45:57That's what tag teams do today. You know who they're coaching trouble for God's sakes.
00:46:00Turn an angle back through the corner by Charlie Haas. And look at that. Total disrespect.
00:46:06That might not have been smart by Charlie Haas.
00:46:13And Kurt Angle with a right hand to Charlie Haas. Again, teacher and people going out into this match.
00:46:21Kurt Angle's wide open right here. Heads up, Haas. Whoa! Big knockdown.
00:46:25Here we go lateral press on Charlie Haas who kicks out after that crossbody by Kurt Angle.
00:46:30And Kurt Angle is all fired up with the right hands. Kurt Angle didn't miss out.
00:46:35Missed a pinch at that neck surgery. Big back body drop. Kurt Angle now measuring Charlie Haas.
00:46:40Charlie Haas to his feet. Shot to the midsection. And Kurt Angle sent over the top rope.
00:46:45And Shelton Benjamin just a few feet away from Kurt Angle.
00:46:50And right now, Charlie Haas gets touched by the ref. The referee doesn't see Kurt Angle into those steel steps.
00:46:58Remember, I'll tell you, man, Kurt hit those steel steps odd. Luckily it was shoulder first. The neck didn't go in first.
00:47:06And referee back and Hedno is sending Shelton Benjamin into the showers.
00:47:11Well, the referee didn't see it, but he heard it. Good job by Hedno.
00:47:14But right now, Charlie Haas gonna capitalize on Kurt.
00:47:18Oh, shit.
00:47:19Well, Hedno gets Benjamin out of here.
00:47:21And left hand and left arm.
00:47:24The steel steps. The odds are even now as Shelton Benjamin is sent back to the locker room.
00:47:29Charlie Haas still looking to take advantage of the damage that Shelton Benjamin did to Angle.
00:47:34Kurt Angle's in-ring return from neck injury continues next.
00:47:39Back on SmackDown, Charlie Haas continuing the assault on Kurt Angle and
00:47:44continuing to work on that left arm of Kurt Angle that Shelton Benjamin injured before the break.
00:47:50Well, yeah, Shelton Benjamin was sent to the back by referee Brian Hebner.
00:47:54Come on over there, come on.
00:47:55So it's one-on-one right here the way it should be.
00:47:57One, two, three.
00:47:58It is Kurt Angle versus former Team Angle member, Charlie Haas.
00:48:02This breakdown has led to this.
00:48:05And Kurt Angle is shoulder knocked down by Charlie Haas.
00:48:08This is Kurt Angle's first ring action since WrestleMania and his neck surgery.
00:48:13But again, Haas goes to work on that injured left arm.
00:48:17Remember, Angle went arm and shoulder first into the steel steps just moments ago.
00:48:22Look at that arm bar right there applied by Charlie Haas.
00:48:27Torquing that wrist right there.
00:48:29Looks like it was a turn from a hammerlock.
00:48:31Yeah, he did.
00:48:32Hammerlock right there by Charlie Haas now.
00:48:35He's got an under grip and into a back bridge.
00:48:37A lot of pressure on the elbow and wrist right there and rolls that bridge back over.
00:48:42Charlie Haas just torquing that left elbow.
00:48:44It's Taz mentioned left wrist of Kurt Angle.
00:48:47And Haas is now in control of Kurt Angle.
00:48:50When you got a guy in a hole and you bridge back and use your leverage to just put more pressure on the joint that way.
00:48:56Great tactics by Charlie Haas, like him or not.
00:48:59It's the crowd trying to roll Kurt Angle back into this matchup.
00:49:02Angle to his feet, elbow to the side of the head.
00:49:05Kurt Angle battles back with the right hand.
00:49:07And Kurt Angle-
00:49:08That'd be something to see Kurt Angle at Vengeance maybe going against Brock or Big Show for the championship, huh?
00:49:15That Russian leg sweep, very innovative right there by Kurt Angle.
00:49:20Both men down center of the ring.
00:49:22This buys both Kurt Angle and Charlie Haas now some time.
00:49:26First man to his feet.
00:49:27Could pick up the momentum in this matchup.
00:49:29And you did mention the big news, Vengeance.
00:49:33July 27th, Denver, Colorado.
00:49:36Mile high city, right?
00:49:37It's really high up.
00:49:38Yeah, I tell you, Roy did a great job with bad blood this past Sunday.
00:49:41Can you imagine what Stephanie McMahon's gonna have in store for his next month in Denver?
00:49:45I'm sure Stephanie's gonna outdo Roy and outdo Eric Fitzgerald.
00:49:49And right now Kurt Angle hoping to outdo Charlie Haas.
00:49:52The right hand to Haas.
00:49:53Haas back to his feet.
00:49:54But Kurt Angle is gaining momentum.
00:49:56There's the switch.
00:49:57Kurt Angle-
00:49:58Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:49:59Big time flooring.
00:50:01Forearm shiver right there by Kurt.
00:50:03Close line.
00:50:04Another close line.
00:50:05And you can feel Kurt Angle just switching into another gear here, Tad.
00:50:08Well Kurt Angle's world class.
00:50:10He's an international superstar.
00:50:12And it's a big time world class belly to belly suplex.
00:50:16Into the cover.
00:50:17Hook of the outside leg.
00:50:18Angle on Haas, who just gets his shoulder up.
00:50:21Kurt Angle's got a lot of big match experience, Cole.
00:50:24That's gonna be the advantage here, that experience over Charlie Haas.
00:50:27Charlie Haas.
00:50:28Oh, my God.
00:50:29Oh, wow.
00:50:30German suplex connected.
00:50:31Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin challenge Angle to one match next to him.
00:50:34Kurt Angle running it here tonight.
00:50:36Here he goes.
00:50:37Stretch it down.
00:50:38You know what time it is.
00:50:39It's Angle slam time, Cole.
00:50:41Charlie Haas to his feet.
00:50:42Kurt Angle sending Charlie Haas up, but Charlie Haas counter.
00:50:45Again, Haas knows Kurt Angle.
00:50:47Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:50:48And a suplex.
00:50:49The neck.
00:50:50Remember, Kurt's back, first match backs its neck surgery.
00:50:53And he just got a German suplex on his feet.
00:50:56And he had to, look at this.
00:50:58He had to believe Charlie Haas would take advantage.
00:51:00And now Haas just mocking Kurt Angle.
00:51:02Somebody's mocking Kurt Angle.
00:51:03Somebody's mocking the former captain.
00:51:04Getting a little cocky here, Haas.
00:51:05You saw Kurt Angle go to the back of his neck with his right hand.
00:51:08And look at Charlie Haas.
00:51:09Angle slam.
00:51:10Going for the angle slam.
00:51:11But Angle countered into an arm drag of his elbow.
00:51:14And the ankle lock.
00:51:16But Haas countered out of it.
00:51:17Quickly got out of it.
00:51:18Haas knows Angle.
00:51:19Very smart by Haas.
00:51:20Look at that thing quick.
00:51:21And look at this.
00:51:22Charlie Haas is trying to slam.
00:51:23Kurt Angle, cover, hooks the leg.
00:51:28He's got it.
00:51:29Kurt Angle kicks up a win.
00:51:31Here's your winner, Kurt Angle.
00:51:37As Kurt Angle celebrates victory.
00:51:41It's Shelton Benjamin from behind.
00:51:44Right on that neck.
00:51:45Vicious attack on that neck.
00:51:47Shelton Benjamin with bad intentions attacking the surgery
00:51:50prepared neck of Kurt Angle.
00:51:52Shelton Benjamin assaulting Kurt Angle.
00:51:56And a slam by Benjamin.
00:51:59Shelton Benjamin all over his former Captain Kurt Angle.
00:52:02And now Shelton Benjamin calling for Charlie Haas.
00:52:05And now a two on one assault being planned by Benjamin and Haas on Kurt Angle.
00:52:12Virgin trouble, Virgin trouble here.
00:52:15My, did you see the neck, the head snap back of Kurt Angle.
00:52:19That whiplash like a motion right there from that crushing kick.
00:52:24Now with the, look at this.
00:52:26A double ankle line.
00:52:28Wow.
00:52:29Being applied by Benjamin and Haas.
00:52:31Making a wish with Angle right here.
00:52:33Wait a minute.
00:52:34It's Brock Lesnar.
00:52:35Lesnar.
00:52:36Lesnar.
00:52:37Even the odds just a bit.
00:52:42Lesnar and Kurt Angle became very good friends over the months after their WrestleMania matchup.
00:52:49Mutual respect and admiration between Lesnar and Angle.
00:52:54And I'll tell you, Brock Lesnar coming out and perhaps saving some serious damage in the hands of Haas and Benjamin.
00:53:01I think Haas and Benjamin did what they wanted to do.
00:53:04And they put a hurt in on Kurt Angle.
00:53:06But Kurt Angle did get the victory.
00:53:08What the hell?
00:53:10Big Show.
00:53:11Big Show.
00:53:12Big Show.
00:53:13And Lesnar on the attack of the Big Show.
00:53:15Big Show's too big.
00:53:16Big Show climbing Brock Lesnar into the steel pole.
00:53:20The Big Show is manhandling Lesnar.
00:53:23Oh my God.
00:53:24The Big Show.
00:53:25Oh my God.
00:53:26The Big Show.
00:53:27Oh my God.
00:53:28Brock Lesnar.
00:53:29Oh my God.
00:53:30Brock Lesnar.
00:53:31To the table.
00:53:32Brock Lesnar.
00:53:33And through the table.
00:53:34Brock Lesnar lets his 295 pound body slip it through this announce table.
00:53:40By the Big Show.
00:53:44SmackDown comes from the FBC Center in San Antonio.
00:53:48Home of the NBA Champion Spurs.
00:53:50And will SmackDown crown a new WWE Champion tonight?
00:53:55It's Brock Lesnar versus the Big Show for the WWE Title.
00:54:00Unfinished Business.
00:54:03Oh.
00:54:12Do you want me, Zack?
00:54:13Yes.
00:54:14Huh?
00:54:15Do you want me?
00:54:16Yeah.
00:54:17Let me hear you yell my name.
00:54:18God, I want you.
00:54:19Let me hear you yell my name, Zack.
00:54:21Sable.
00:54:22Oh yeah.
00:54:23And tell me how much you want me.
00:54:24I want you so bad.
00:54:25Yeah?
00:54:26You need me hard, Zack.
00:54:27Tell me again that you want me.
00:54:28I want you so bad.
00:54:31Well, too bad.
00:54:32Are you crazy?
00:54:34Do you ever think you could have a woman like me?
00:54:38You're nothing but an amputee.
00:54:41You're not even a real man.
00:54:43Do you really think you could satisfy me, Zack?
00:54:46Huh?
00:54:47Do you really think you had a chance?
00:54:50Hey!
00:54:51What the hell is this?
00:54:55You little freak!
00:54:59You were great!
00:55:01Oh my god, did you see the look on his face?
00:55:02Oh my god, you were sensational.
00:55:03It was so fun.
00:55:04Oh, oh, oh, yes.
00:55:05Yes.
00:55:06It was great.
00:55:07It was a set up.
00:55:08How much more is Mr. McMahon gonna love in this poor kid, Zack Allen's face?
00:55:09It was so funny.
00:55:10You broke something nice in his face.
00:55:11Look at that.
00:55:12Look at that.
00:55:13Look at that.
00:55:14You were great!
00:55:15That was great.
00:55:16You were great!
00:55:17You were great!
00:55:18Oh my god, did you see the look on his face?
00:55:19You were great!
00:55:20You were great!
00:55:21Oh my god, did you see the look on his face?
00:55:22God, you were sensational.
00:55:25Oh my god, you were sensational.
00:55:26It was so fun.
00:55:27It was a setup.
00:55:29How much more is Mr. McMahon going to run in this poor kid, Zach Allen's face?
00:55:33Oh, he broke something nice in his face that time.
00:55:35Look at that.
00:55:39Wow.
00:55:41Billy Gunn has brought Corey Wilson along.
00:55:44Oh, Billy Gunn's great.
00:55:48Following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:55:52Making his way, way, way, and a ton of them, 65 pounds.
00:55:55Billy Gunn.
00:55:57Well, Billy Gunn returned last week from a rotator cuff injury.
00:56:01Tori Wilson, the guest, bring it out through it.
00:56:04Well, Tori and Billy left together after the matchup.
00:56:07And what it is, man, you're telling me some stuff about rumors flying around.
00:56:10Oh, I'll tell you, rumors in the back in the locker room area.
00:56:13All week, people have been talking about what's going on with these two.
00:56:16I mean, let's put it this way, Cole.
00:56:18Tori and Billy Gunn, they're really, really good friends.
00:56:23You know what I mean?
00:56:23Okay, Dr. Phil.
00:56:26What?
00:56:26Dr. Phil, I got hair.
00:56:29This guy's full.
00:56:31You got hair?
00:56:32And here's the right thing accompanied by Nidia from Hanover, West Virginia, weighing in at 200 pounds, Jamie Noble.
00:56:42I don't think there's any question about the relationship between Nidia and Jamie Noble.
00:56:47In fact, I think Nidia believes she's got a better behind than both Tori and Billy Gunn.
00:56:52I think they both have phenomenal answers.
00:56:54That's my personal opinion.
00:56:55Don't Billy Gunn and Tori?
00:56:56No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I think Nidia and Tori, whatever.
00:57:03Look, Nidia, Nidia, look, see, Nidia's imitating Tori.
00:57:07And Noble's imitating Billy Gunn.
00:57:08Well, yeah, Billy too, yeah, he's got the jean shorts on there, Noble with the little pocket ripped off.
00:57:13I don't know, they're crazy, Noble and Nidia, you know, they're crazy.
00:57:17What about Mr. McMahon and Sable?
00:57:19Everybody's nuts around here.
00:57:21It's SmackDown, what the hell?
00:57:23So it's Billy Gunn and Jamie Noble one-on-one in this matchup.
00:57:25And folks, still to come tonight, Brock Lesnar and the Big Show are going to meet for the WWE Championship.
00:57:32Last week they met, and the ring imploded.
00:57:36I don't know what else is going to happen.
00:57:38And look at Noble going behind Billy Gunn as this matchup gets underway.
00:57:42And Billy Gunn, a lot bigger athlete than Jamie Noble.
00:57:46Jamie Noble quickly floating out of that front headlock.
00:57:48Two-on-one right here on the wrist of Noble by Billy Gunn.
00:57:53Switching.
00:57:54And Billy Gunn looked great last week in his return to SmackDown.
00:57:59Again, Billy Gunn and Tori left the arena together last week,
00:58:02and now there's all kinds of rumors about their relationship floating around.
00:58:05Well, Tori looked great on her return to SmackDown, too.
00:58:08Well, she didn't return, but she still looked great on SmackDown.
00:58:11A little bit better than Jim or is the ring announcer.
00:58:15Well, Billy Gunn in pursuit of Jamie Noble outside the ring,
00:58:18and there's the right hands by Billy Gunn.
00:58:21Billy Gunn was great system turn, no doubt about it.
00:58:24This is with the right hand, and Jamie Noble!
00:58:27Shots to the knee of Billy Gunn.
00:58:29So I guess if you're Noble, you bring the big man down to your size,
00:58:31but take him on his feet.
00:58:32I mean, no, I mean, Billy Gunn's like six-foot-five.
00:58:36Noble's like, you know, you got me by, I got hit by like two inches.
00:58:39He's like five-foot-eleven, Noble, I guess.
00:58:42What's my name?
00:58:43What?
00:58:45You got him by two inches?
00:58:48It's a family show, Cole.
00:58:49Jamie Noble really working on that knee of Billy Gunn.
00:58:55Torrey's better.
00:58:57Look at that shot there, Mr. McGregor.
00:58:585-11 when you get Sunday Night Heat.
00:59:02And look at Torrey, really Billy Gunn on.
00:59:04Wow.
00:59:05And Billy in control of Jamie Noble.
00:59:08Noble's all over that leg, and the cam man's all over Torrey.
00:59:10Oh, there it is.
00:59:12And Billy rolls out, gets back to his feet.
00:59:14Jamie Noble on the attack.
00:59:15And Billy Gunn, look at that.
00:59:17Jamie Noble, that was taking out that left knee of Billy Gunn.
00:59:20That was different, nice by Noble.
00:59:22The cover, hook at the inside leg, and Billy Gunn gets the shoulder up.
00:59:28Noble, Noble, don't be surprised by the way Noble looks.
00:59:31Noble's very well-versed submission right here.
00:59:35Noble knows how to work on that mat and basitis trying to bend Billy Gunn's other knee outward,
00:59:42but Billy's staying on the side, preventing Noble from...
00:59:45...shoulders down, and Billy got the shoulder up before the count of two.
00:59:48Noble chops him down quickly again.
00:59:51What I have, you are my man!
00:59:53That chop.
00:59:54All right, that's not bothering Billy Gunn.
00:59:56Beginning to fire Billy Gunn up.
00:59:57The right hand by Billy Gunn as he breaks the hold.
01:00:00But can Billy Gunn do this basically on one leg right here?
01:00:02Yeah!
01:00:03And killed the one!
01:00:04Oh, look at that one arm!
01:00:05And Billy Gunn in control now!
01:00:08No, no!
01:00:09The right hand by Billy Gunn, firing up!
01:00:11Go, go, go!
01:00:13And Jamie Noble struggling to his feet.
01:00:16Jamie Noble's in trouble right now.
01:00:18Billy Gunn has got his second ring.
01:00:21Look at his press slam!
01:00:22Wow!
01:00:23Oh, no!
01:00:24He's on his feet!
01:00:25Shoulders down!
01:00:26He had the touch doubled in!
01:00:27But Billy Gunn still managed to kick out!
01:00:30Jump to the midsection!
01:00:31Billy Gunn setting up Noble and Nidia just grabbed the leg!
01:00:34And Billy Gunn...
01:00:35Look at this!
01:00:36Wow!
01:00:37Tori taking off Nidia!
01:00:38There you go!
01:00:40Yeah!
01:00:41Tori and Nidia going at it!
01:00:43Outside the ring!
01:00:44Group tomatoes rolling around with a black man on a Thursday night!
01:00:48Oh, come on, Billy!
01:00:50What a sport, sport!
01:00:53Billy Gunn separating Tori and Nidia!
01:00:56Oh, Billy Gunn's slow wrestling the match right here!
01:00:58Billy Gunn up over the top!
01:00:59Oh!
01:01:00Billy Gunn!
01:01:01Roping out of the way!
01:01:02Noble looking like dead double left for a moment!
01:01:05And now he looks like Pancake!
01:01:06Ooh!
01:01:07As Billy Gunn...
01:01:08Pancake!
01:01:09Tosses Jamie Noble back into the ring!
01:01:11Get it, Pancake?
01:01:13Yeah, I know, it's not a superhero!
01:01:14Noble's in trouble!
01:01:15Going for the famous ring again here!
01:01:17Billy Gunn, great elevation!
01:01:19Noble moves out of the way!
01:01:20Shot through the midsection!
01:01:22Jamie Noble shot again by...
01:01:24Look at Billy Gunn!
01:01:25Billy Gunn!
01:01:26The famous in connects!
01:01:27What height, what height!
01:01:28Shoulders down!
01:01:29Hook of the way!
01:01:30Billy Gunn is rolling!
01:01:31Here is your winner, Billy Gunn!
01:01:36I guess Tori Wilson's providing some motivation!
01:01:42Well, Tori Wilson should do that getting, you know, a rise, how to work out here!
01:01:47You know what I mean?
01:01:48Getting the best out of Billy Gunn!
01:01:49It's like a great manager, right?
01:01:50I guess that's what they call it today!
01:01:52I don't know!
01:01:53I love to show up!
01:01:54I want to stick em!
01:01:55Well, I want to smoke and float em!
01:01:56See, that's why I should have won when I wrestled big tights.
01:01:58I love to stick em, and I'm gonna kick em!
01:01:59And I'm gonna kick em!
01:02:00I love to stick em!
01:02:01And I'm gonna kick em!
01:02:02Again, I'm going to say what I said last week.
01:02:04What did you say last week, Cole?
01:02:05Billy Gunn's been back from that injury for a cup of coffee,
01:02:08and already he's running around with a Playboy Covergirl.
01:02:11Well, check this out.
01:02:13Still the count.
01:02:14Blast up.
01:02:16Big show for the WWE Championship.
01:02:20We're tending to unfinished business tonight on SmackDown.
01:02:24For the first time in 17 years,
01:02:34the WWE has sanctioned a stretcher match.
01:02:39This kind of matchup just picks up on your body,
01:02:42which picks up on your career.
01:02:44There's no stretcher big enough for Brock Lesnar to put the big show on.
01:02:50Wait a minute.
01:02:51Brock Lesnar's got a damn forklift.
01:02:53Brock Lesnar's on top of the forklift.
01:02:55Look at my God.
01:02:56Oh, my God.
01:02:58Lesnar with a crossbody off the top of the forklift.
01:03:02Oh, man, here comes the pain.
01:03:04Look at how powerful.
01:03:05And the F5 connects.
01:03:07Look at this.
01:03:08Oh, my God.
01:03:09This homemade stretcher is back in the hole.
01:03:12Brock Lesnar.
01:03:13He did it.
01:03:14Has retained the title.
01:03:19Viva La Raza.
01:03:21And there is unfinished business tonight.
01:03:22Lester, big show for the title on SmackDown.
01:03:28Hey.
01:03:29Oh.
01:03:30Look at Adler, right?
01:03:32What is it?
01:03:33Check out Adler.
01:03:37Coloring one-on-one contest is scheduled for lunch fall.
01:03:41Making it's way to the right thing.
01:03:43Accompanied by Scatieri.
01:03:44From El Paso, Texas.
01:03:4628-228 pounds.
01:03:49Eddie.
01:03:49Eddie.
01:03:50Eddie.
01:03:50We're all.
01:03:51Hey, Cole, we should get one of these lowriders.
01:03:53Can you replace that?
01:03:54Oh.
01:03:55Look at that Johnson you brought down.
01:03:57The Pinto.
01:03:58The Pinto.
01:03:58Eddie, I got a question.
01:03:59You're from New York City.
01:04:00Well, can you get a lowrider in New York City?
01:04:03Oh, we got to talk to lowriders, highriders, medium.
01:04:06We got them.
01:04:07I want to know what Eddie and Tajiri are going to roll into the garden next week for SmackDown.
01:04:12SmackDown comes to Madison Square Garden, the home of WrestleMania 20, next week.
01:04:18The world's most famous arena.
01:04:21Madison Square Garden has his hometown next week.
01:04:25Hey, I just live across the river.
01:04:28What?
01:04:28Jersey.
01:04:29I live in Jersey.
01:04:30What's your problem?
01:04:31Yeah.
01:04:31You're bragging about it.
01:04:33Eddie Guerrero set for action.
01:04:34And being accompanied to the ring by Rowdy, Rowdy Piper, weighing in at 274 times, Sean O'Hare.
01:04:56Problems began last week when Eddie and Tajiri were guests at Piper's Pit.
01:05:01Why don't you just let him hold that tag team belt?
01:05:05Tajiri, what are you doing?
01:05:07You got to touch the belt.
01:05:09Now, give me the belt back.
01:05:11Hey, S.A., guess what?
01:05:13What?
01:05:14We lied.
01:05:15What are you going to do about it?
01:05:17Well, Tajiri would ask you a mouthful of tequila in the Roddy Piper's eyes.
01:05:23Then Eddie Guerrero using the goal to take out Sean O'Hare.
01:05:25Oh, yeah, and that brings us to right here tonight.
01:05:28Look at Roddy Piper laying all over that tequila all over that wall runner.
01:05:33That's sacrilege right there.
01:05:35Piper's been a host of tequila up there.
01:05:37I don't know if I'm the first time I've got to stick it out, but that's another story.
01:05:40O'Hare and Eddie Guerrero one-on-one here in this matchup on SmackDown.
01:05:46What?
01:05:46This O'Hare, man, well.
01:05:48Wasted a little time.
01:05:48Eddie Guerrero, of course, distracted by Piper.
01:05:50Sean O'Hare's a young star, man, a young lion here on SmackDown.
01:05:55Wow!
01:05:55He looks great, man.
01:05:56He's put together, O'Hare, with that very dangerous martial arts background.
01:06:01Let's not forget about that, O'Hare.
01:06:03I tell you, Sean O'Hare is obsessed with championship gold.
01:06:07You saw last week, he just wanted to feel the title.
01:06:09He just wanted to put it on his shoulder and see how it felt.
01:06:12Sean O'Hare.
01:06:14Wow.
01:06:15As O'Hare delivers that kick to the rib cage of Eddie Guerrero.
01:06:19Well, it all started, because O'Hare wouldn't give any of his damn belt back.
01:06:21The prize is the championships.
01:06:26And look at the intensity.
01:06:27It's Sean O'Hare.
01:06:28Well, Piper brings that out of someone, and that's what Piper's bringing out of Sean O'Hare.
01:06:32You talk to Piper, that's what Piper says, is this kid Sean O'Hare, he's destined to be a champion.
01:06:36I can't believe it.
01:06:37Millenium, millennium, millennium.
01:06:38Millenium.
01:06:40And Eddie Guerrero battling back, the veteran, with the right hands, to Sean O'Hare.
01:06:44Anybody knows about champions, it's Roddy Piper.
01:06:47He's a big champion, he's battled the battle of champions over the years, and Roddy Piper
01:06:52thinks Sean O'Hare gets all the qualities it takes to be a champion.
01:06:55Cover, hook to the leg, and the veteran Guerrero, and a kick out.
01:06:58Well, right now, Sean O'Hare's taken the one-half of the tank team champions, Eddie Guerrero.
01:07:04Piper, I'm begging you to stop slamming that belt on his table.
01:07:07He just keeps slamming the belt on the table.
01:07:09Well, he's drinking tequila, and he's slamming the belt to him.
01:07:12In the last five minutes, half that tequila bottle's been swallowed.
01:07:15Right now, squeezing the life out of Eddie Guerrero, he's Sean O'Hare with that, my first bear hug.
01:07:22And the shots with the elbow to the side of the head of O'Hare.
01:07:24As Eddie Guerrero looks to battle out, but O'Hare continues to pressure.
01:07:28O'Hare's a big cat, man.
01:07:30He's a big, big boy.
01:07:31We were talking about champions earlier on.
01:07:33Will there be a new champion crown tonight?
01:07:37Brock Lesnar defends the title against the Big Show here tonight on SmackDown just moments away.
01:07:43Eddie Guerrero fighting back.
01:07:49Lottie, you need a breath in.
01:07:51I'm begging you, I need that.
01:07:52Just come on, come on.
01:07:53I think you're drunk from a breathing in your face.
01:07:55Look at Sean O'Hare.
01:07:56And he countered with a drop kick after the missed jumping spin kick from Sean O'Hare.
01:08:03And Eddie Guerrero goes right to work on that knee.
01:08:07It was tweaked by Sean O'Hare.
01:08:09Eddie Guerrero would go right after Sean O'Hare now.
01:08:12She's a weak point.
01:08:13Eddie Guerrero focusing in on O'Hare, but O'Hare fighting back.
01:08:15Look at this.
01:08:16I don't think Eddie Guerrero is going to be able to go blow the blow with Sean O'Hare.
01:08:19Eddie Guerrero is going to have to rely on a better instant just like he did then.
01:08:23Eddie Guerrero's very crafty, and you're right.
01:08:25That's where Eddie Guerrero's got to rely on.
01:08:27Uncle Punt's a part for the big man.
01:08:29Eddie Guerrero's in a place he knows the top rope.
01:08:31Wow.
01:08:31Going right back to work on that knee, and Latino Heat throwing it up in his home state of Texas.
01:08:37Eddie Guerrero's holding his ribs.
01:08:40That goal behind him.
01:08:41Look at Ryan.
01:08:41Piper, what's up with this?
01:08:43Piper grabbing the leg, providing a momentary action, and it allowed him to roll out of the way
01:08:48of the frog splash.
01:08:50And Tajiri, and Piper came back from last week, tequila to the eyes.
01:08:55Tequila all over the place.
01:08:57Look at O'Hare.
01:08:58Wow.
01:08:58Oh, man.
01:08:59Eddie Guerrero planted hook to the wall.
01:09:02Eddie Guerrero defeated by Sean O'Hare.
01:09:06Sean O'Hare.
01:09:08That is impressive.
01:09:10I don't care how you do it.
01:09:11You get a win over Eddie Guerrero.
01:09:14That is impressive by Sean O'Hare.
01:09:17Sean O'Hare calls it the prophecy.
01:09:19As Rodney Piper pouring that tequila all over Eddie Guerrero.
01:09:23Disrespecting Eddie Guerrero.
01:09:26This is all right.
01:09:27Boom, right back out to Jerry from last week.
01:09:29Tequila, and then another swing, and a little more tequila.
01:09:32Piper's a psycho.
01:09:34Check this out.
01:09:35The prophecy happened.
01:09:37Big time.
01:09:37Bobby Cagli inverted the opposite way.
01:09:40Driving Eddie Guerrero, getting a major, in my opinion, an upset victory for Sean O'Hare.
01:09:44A huge win for Sean O'Hare, as Rodney Piper pays dividends.
01:09:49I know Eddie Guerrero pretty good enough time.
01:09:51He's probably flaring.
01:09:52He's probably very angry.
01:09:54Flaring like a pack of headboys over that one.
01:09:57Running has been reinforced.
01:10:00Mark Lester, Big Show, WWE Championship is on the line.
01:10:05It's next.
01:10:06And it is next.
01:10:08I must say your performance tonight was nothing less than superlative.
01:10:16And to think we pulled it all off with this faux Stephanie office stuff.
01:10:21I mean, think about it.
01:10:22Last week, it was Mr. McMahon humiliating Zach.
01:10:26Boom.
01:10:26And this week, it was Sable.
01:10:30Oh, so delicious.
01:10:32Sable-licious.
01:10:34Humiliating Zach.
01:10:35I have to think of, uh, some way to thank you, Sable.
01:10:42Hmm.
01:10:44Let me see.
01:10:47Well, I guess there are a couple of ways to thank you.
01:10:53Why don't we start with this?
01:10:54Sable-licious.
01:11:05Yeah, why don't we just start with that?
01:11:08But meanwhile, uh, oh, no, wait a minute.
01:11:11I think I've got a better idea.
01:11:14What if?
01:11:17Oh, Sable!
01:11:18Sable!
01:11:19Sable!
01:11:20Oh, Sable, I want you!
01:11:22Sable, I want you!
01:11:23Oh, yes!
01:11:24Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
01:11:26Oh, I want you, Sable!
01:11:28Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute!
01:11:30Sable!
01:11:31Hold the phone.
01:11:32I've got wood.
01:11:33Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute!
01:11:38It's just my leg!
01:11:40You are so bad, man.
01:11:43Oh, but how bad, uh, how bad are you?
01:11:48Are you bad?
01:11:49Why don't you just show me how bad you can be then?
01:11:53Yeah?
01:11:54Yeah.
01:11:59Yeah, you can be bad.
01:12:01Get out.
01:12:05Get the, get out.
01:12:10You know what, Dad?
01:12:11I'm sorry.
01:12:13What do you mean?
01:12:14I'm sorry that all my life I've let you manipulate me and use me.
01:12:19All my life just to be the apple of my daddy's eye.
01:12:23I'm having a little fun here.
01:12:24Every time that you have ever, every time I went out to dinner with one of your business associates,
01:12:29I was 17 years old.
01:12:30You don't think they told me what you promised them I'd do?
01:12:33And guess what, Dad?
01:12:34I did it.
01:12:36I did it for you, the things I did with them, and I'm ashamed of myself.
01:12:40I'm ashamed of myself that I'm just like you.
01:12:43And I'm not going to let you do that to Zach Gowen.
01:12:47Why do I care so much about Zach Gowen?
01:12:49Maybe because he's my last bastard to vote.
01:12:51Maybe because he's the last thing that could possibly save myself.
01:12:56But I'm not going to let you do it to him, Dad.
01:12:58And if that means that you're going to fire me, then fine.
01:13:01Fire me.
01:13:02Fire me, Dad.
01:13:03And then maybe you'll lose the one person who ever cared about you,
01:13:07the only one person that wanted to be just like you, me.
01:13:09Maybe I just won't care about you anymore.
01:13:30Well, ladies and gentlemen, huge news.
01:13:33As SmackDown heads to the home of WrestleMania 20 next week,
01:13:37Madison Square Garden, The Undertaker, and the returning APA
01:13:41against the full-blooded Italians.
01:13:43Plus, Taz, don't forget, in the Garden next week on SmackDown,
01:13:47the debut of the Ultimo Dragon.
01:13:50Oh, yeah, no doubt.
01:13:54He's 500 pounds.
01:13:56Where the hell is he going?
01:13:57No.
01:13:57Oh, my God.
01:13:58No.
01:13:59The 500-pound Superbots.
01:14:01Oh, my God.
01:14:02Brock Lesnar and Big Show are down and out.
01:14:07A superplex imploded the ring.
01:14:10This is amazing.
01:14:11Brock Lesnar and Big Show have not moved.
01:14:15Well.
01:14:17Oh.
01:14:19Here we go, man.
01:14:21And we've been informed that this ring has been reinforced tonight
01:14:25as Big Show and Lesnar collide for the title.
01:14:31Following contest this video, four, one fall,
01:14:34and it is for the WWE Championship.
01:14:39Touristing first to challenger, weighing in at 500 pounds,
01:14:44The Big Show.
01:14:46He is the largest athlete in the world today.
01:14:51Seven feet tall, 500 pounds.
01:14:58And you don't want to make this giant angry.
01:15:02Well, SmackDown presents WWE Vengeance.
01:15:04Sponsored by Lava Press.
01:15:06Your 10th video game, Tomb Raider.
01:15:08The Angel of the Darkness.
01:15:10Vengeance will be live Sunday, July 27th,
01:15:13from the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado.
01:15:15And exclusively a pay-per-view.
01:15:21It's Big Show versus Fort Lesnar for the WWE title, next.
01:15:30Big Show's the challenger.
01:15:32This man is the WWE Champion.
01:15:38Well, here comes the paint.
01:15:41And from Minneapolis, Minnesota, weighing in at 295 pounds,
01:15:50is the WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar.
01:15:57Throughout the night, we have chronicled the many chapters in this rivalry
01:16:02between Brock Lesnar and the Big Show.
01:16:05It's unfinished business tonight for the WWE title.
01:16:09Oh!
01:16:11The SBC Center in San Antonio, Texas.
01:16:22Home of the NBA Champion, San Antonio Spurs.
01:16:25Perhaps tonight, the home of a new WWE Champion, The Big Show.
01:16:32Look at Brock.
01:16:33Brock, tell him, come on, let's do it.
01:16:35Let's do this, Superplex.
01:16:37Come on, look at that!
01:16:38On the top, Brock Lesnar, with an amazing score.
01:16:41And now the shoulders into the gun, Big Show.
01:16:44Brock Lesnar drawing Big Show into the corner, and Brock Lesnar goes to work.
01:16:48I'll tell you, I still cannot believe it was here last week.
01:16:52That Superplex over the top rope, as Brock Lesnar takes control early.
01:16:56He's clawing the Big Show out of his game.
01:16:59That's it, you want to stay on the Big Show.
01:17:02It takes a lot of punishing goals for the Big Show's body to weaken this big monster.
01:17:07He's a giant.
01:17:08And Big Show puts it off the steel post.
01:17:11And the Champion, Brock Lesnar, extremely confident looking here tonight.
01:17:16Brock's always confident, but should he be?
01:17:19I mean, Big Show definitely can win this matchup.
01:17:23Big Show has beaten Brock in the past.
01:17:25Two different occasions, Big Show won his pitfall victories over Brock Lesnar.
01:17:30At Survivor Series, Big Show won the WWE title from Lesnar, and
01:17:34he beat Lesnar a couple of weeks back in a tag team matchup.
01:17:37And you know Kurt Angle's in the back somewhere watching this matchup.
01:17:41Big Show backed off the apron.
01:17:43Kurt Angle has challenged the winner of the Proof.
01:17:46Brock Lesnar, Big Show match.
01:17:48Well, we're supposed to have a winner last week, but the ring broke.
01:17:52And Brock Lesnar, Big Show.
01:17:54It's all about unfinished business here tonight.
01:17:57Brock Lesnar taking a little too much time.
01:17:58Oh, my God.
01:18:00Big Show, that brought pet memories of Mysterio.
01:18:02Yeah, but the thing is, Brock Lesnar's 300 pounds, Cole.
01:18:06Let's take a look at this.
01:18:08How strong is the Big Show?
01:18:10Look at the power.
01:18:11300 pound monster, Brock Lesnar's got thrown.
01:18:17It was 150 pounds.
01:18:18And Big Show, the 500 pounder, now in control of the champion Lesnar.
01:18:22Listen to this.
01:18:24Oh, wow.
01:18:27That's like getting hit by a frying pan.
01:18:29Big one.
01:18:30And Brock Lesnar just rolling out of the ring off the apron.
01:18:34And Big Show measuring the champion.
01:18:38Big Show realizing the title will not be won outside the ring.
01:18:42Big Show taking his time.
01:18:43Yeah, there's no reason for Big Show to run out.
01:18:45He's there after Brock.
01:18:46But Brock Lesnar, the champion, taking advantage.
01:18:48I think Brock baited him in a little bit with that.
01:18:50Feel the buzz in this building, Cole, for this championship matchup.
01:18:55I can feel it.
01:18:56Whoa!
01:18:57And Brock Lesnar felt that sidewalk slam.
01:19:00Here's the cover.
01:19:01Title's on the leg.
01:19:03And Brock Lesnar kicks out.
01:19:04But every time, Big Show gets a pitfall on the champion.
01:19:07The champion has to exert so much energy just to get the big man off him.
01:19:11Yeah, you have to get 500 pounds over your chest.
01:19:14Look at that headbutt.
01:19:15It's like a headbutt by like a, let's see, like a Fiat and Volkswagen.
01:19:20Look at those bowling balls.
01:19:22Woo!
01:19:22Straight right hand.
01:19:25Now, I'm very vocal about how it feels about the actions of late at the Big Show.
01:19:30Big Show driving that 22-5D boot into the throat of Brock Lesnar.
01:19:35How do you know the size of this guy's foot?
01:19:37He told me.
01:19:38Okay.
01:19:38I'm gonna believe everything he tells me.
01:19:39I'm gonna, I believe the guy too.
01:19:41Oh!
01:19:41Another headbutt.
01:19:43And Lesnar again, the champion driven to his knees.
01:19:46Hey!
01:19:47Come on, Brock Lesnar!
01:19:47Brock Lesnar's hurt right now.
01:19:49Dude!
01:19:49Brock Lesnar's hurt, but Big Show knows it.
01:19:52And the Big Show keeping the pressure on Brock Lesnar.
01:19:57This has been a tremendous rivalry between these two.
01:20:00Might have a new champion here tonight, Cole.
01:20:02Big Show looks focused.
01:20:04He's not rushing through the match.
01:20:06He's taking his time calculating the lead, Cole.
01:20:08That's a great point.
01:20:09Big Show looks more focused tonight than at any time over the past couple of months
01:20:13in his matches against Brock Lesnar.
01:20:15I've seen him in the back early today.
01:20:17I've seen him about four different times.
01:20:18He didn't talk to nobody.
01:20:20Brock Lesnar running out of the way that time.
01:20:21And now, driving his shoulders into the midsection of the Big Show.
01:20:26Get him out of the way that time.
01:20:27Get him out of the way that time.
01:20:27The champion with the first one.
01:20:29What a clothesline!
01:20:30Did you see Lesnar leave his feet?
01:20:32Cutter could crown a new champion, and Lesnar kicked out again.
01:20:36Brock looked like he was in the air for a couple of seconds.
01:20:38What a clothesline.
01:20:39Like I was saying, Big Show was in the back today.
01:20:41He kind of just stood to himself all day.
01:20:43He stood in the room and just stood by himself.
01:20:45And no one went near him.
01:20:46Very, very focused tonight.
01:20:48Trust me.
01:20:48Abdominal stretch out.
01:20:50Brock Lesnar.
01:20:51And remember, keep in mind, Brock Lesnar has been suffering from a broken rib since December
01:20:58into January.
01:20:59It's never completely healed.
01:21:00And Brock Lesnar's told us on a number of occasions he's got this in the ring.
01:21:03That doesn't help a broken rib when you get clubbed by a giant.
01:21:07And when you're on the road, you know, five, six nights a week wrestling and defending
01:21:12your championship, that doesn't help your broken rib.
01:21:14If it doesn't heal.
01:21:15It never heals.
01:21:15I mean, how can it?
01:21:18And Big Show continuing the pressure, just trying to rip that rib.
01:21:26And look at the pain in the eyes of Brock Lesnar, perhaps desperation in the eyes of
01:21:31the champion, as Big Show continues to talk, that big Abdominal stretch.
01:21:36Brock Lesnar's powering out of that Abdominal stretch.
01:21:38Might have an elbow there, Brock.
01:21:40Look at the champion.
01:21:42How powerful is he?
01:21:43Can you believe that?
01:21:44Brock Lesnar powering out, and now goes on the offense.
01:21:48Man, here comes Brock.
01:21:48Boot to the face, and Big Show knocks the champ down.
01:21:51And it goes, Brock.
01:21:52And the end could be near.
01:21:53500.
01:21:54What, what, what a height, what height did the Big Show get?
01:21:58We're gonna have a new champion.
01:21:59He's got up.
01:22:00And he just gets the shoulder up.
01:22:02And now, Big Show, perhaps, beginning to feel the frustration of the past few weeks.
01:22:08Yeah, he's frustrated, but he's frustrated, his frustration is focused.
01:22:13He's not blowing a gasket, running out of a ring, even truly.
01:22:16He's staying on his opponent.
01:22:18That's smart by the Big Show.
01:22:21Big Show continuing the pressure.
01:22:23Brock is in all kinds of trouble.
01:22:25What the hell is Big Show doing here?
01:22:28Brock Lesnar placed up on the second rope.
01:22:30No, no.
01:22:31Big Show, is he gonna return it?
01:22:33Is he?
01:22:34He's going for a superplex rope.
01:22:35This is what Lesnar did to the Big Show last week that broke the damn ring.
01:22:39And everybody in this building just stood up.
01:22:42This ring is, this ring was reinforced here tonight.
01:22:45It's gonna happen again, though.
01:22:47But Brock Lesnar, the champion, with the shots to the rims.
01:22:50Is it gonna happen again?
01:22:52Big Show to the second rope.
01:22:53A lot of fight, and a long blow by the champion.
01:22:57An effective maneuver by Lesnar.
01:23:00Referee didn't see it.
01:23:03Big Show standing right on his hip, really hard.
01:23:06One foot on the top rope, the other one on the second rope.
01:23:09That's a big drop for a giant.
01:23:11And Brock Lesnar from the top rope.
01:23:14Lesnar's gonna fly.
01:23:15Knocking the Big Show down from the top rope.
01:23:18It's amazing that both these men are able to compete.
01:23:23Tonight, after what happened last week.
01:23:26And again, that's what's impressive.
01:23:28Lesnar driving the shoulders into the midsection of the Big Show.
01:23:32Lesnar whipped into the corner.
01:23:33The WWE title's on the line.
01:23:37What's the champion now?
01:23:39That's 500 pounds, a German suplex released by Lesnar.
01:23:44And now the champion is about to kick it into another gear.
01:23:48That second wind kicked in.
01:23:50The second wind kicked in, and Lesnar is looking sharp at the tack right now.
01:23:55Big Show to his feet, shot to the midsection.
01:23:57Going for the out five, the 500 pound of Big Show.
01:24:00He got it.
01:24:01In the top rope, holding on for D-Light.
01:24:03And look at this.
01:24:04Shot Benjamin, Charlie Haas.
01:24:07Whoa, man.
01:24:08Earlier tonight, Haas and Benjamin Phil just interrupted by Lesnar.
01:24:12And now Lesnar taking it from the former team, Angle now.
01:24:15Back to the back, back to Gusem.
01:24:17Shot Slam.
01:24:18Shot Slam from the Big Show to Lesnar.
01:24:21That distraction by Haas and Pepper.
01:24:24It's Kurt Angle, Kurt Angle.
01:24:27Kurt Angle with shots to the midsection.
01:24:29Angle Slam.
01:24:30Angle Slam for the Big Show.
01:24:32Oh, my God, here goes Haas, here goes Benjamin, Kurt Angle's on fire.
01:24:38Jump in suplex to Charlie Haas.
01:24:40Now to shut down Benjamin, Kurt Angle taking it to the fellow team Angle members.
01:24:46But, uh-oh, Angle's in trouble now.
01:24:48Big Show with a chokeslam to Kurt Angle, just tossing Kurt Angle around the ring.
01:24:56Wait a minute, no, it's Mr. America.
01:24:59What the hell is he doing out here?
01:25:01Mr. America.
01:25:09Mr. America is all pumped up.
01:25:13You, you, you, you, you.
01:25:21Big Show with the cross the ring.
01:25:22Big boot by Mr. America.
01:25:25My, he's not serious.
01:25:28Yes, he is.
01:25:30Mr. America's got those 24-inch Patriots.
01:25:34Mr. America, and look at it.
01:25:36Charlie Haas and Sheldon Benjamin from behind the two-level assault of Mr. America.
01:25:41Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
01:25:47Big Show with a chokeslam to Park Lesnar, to Kurt Angle, to Mr. America here tonight.
01:26:00Is anyone safe in the Big Show's world?
01:26:05Big Show didn't leave here, what he came here for.
01:26:11But Big Show made a statement, leaving with a lot more respect here tonight.
01:26:17What a night!
01:26:20Good night, everybody!
01:26:22From San Antonio!
01:26:24Come on, break it up and turn on all the night.
01:26:28Come on, come on, come on.
01:26:32Well, get ready for something that you'll never know.
01:26:38Boom, boom, boom.
01:26:50Boom, boom.
01:26:54Alright, let's go.
01:26:59Oh, yeah.
